Public bug reported:
Actually, I wanted to write a bug report about the edubuntu website
being massively out of date ("Edubuntu 9.04 is an Add-on on top of
regular Ubuntu desktop"). However, I have wasted one and a half hour
trying to write that bug report, without success.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Visit the website www.ubuntu.com and look for a bug tracker
2. select "community" and BugSquad, hoping to find a bug tracker, read some
pages and follow some links
3. finally give up and search with Google for ubuntu bug tracker
4. follow the first result to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs
5. use the search field to check whether the bug has already been reported
6. use the advanced search to make a more precise search
7. finally give up searching as there are even not basic categories like
"infrastructure", "package", "live cd" and so on
8. click on "Report a bug". Note that it is a fake button and redirects to a
wiki page.
9. read almost the whole wiki page to finally find a link for reporting the bug
10. enter the bug summary and hit Next
11. wait for the enforced search to finish (up to about 20 seconds)
12. ignore the useless result (an intensive search has been made in steps 5 to
7) and click on "No, I need to report a new bug"
13. ignore the question "In what package did you find this bug?", as the
edubuntu website is no package.
14. write the bug report
15. click on "Submit the bug report" and wait
16. after waiting quite some time, read the message
Timeout error
Sorry, something just went wrong in Launchpad.
We’ve recorded what happened, and we’ll fix it as soon as possible. Apologies
for the inconvenience.
Trying again in a couple of minutes might work.
